The obliviousness of the international relations theories to the field of migration creates a huge gap in this literature. This study has the characteristics of an introduction to this field in the context of international relations theories. In this direction, this study aims to explain the migration flow to Turkey in the last decade in the line with a theoretical and historical perspective. First of all, this study will aim to examine migration flow to Turkey accordingly Hans Morgenthau’s holder/balancer concept in Realist paradigm. So, in this research it is claimed that Turkey became a holder actor after 2008 and this holder role changes the route of migration flows to Turkey. In order to test the hypothesis, some examples about Turkish attitudes toward regional crises will be presented. Secondly, this study will mention about Turkey’s deep sociocultural bonds with its region. It will also be asserted that when this bond is combined with imperial consciousness of Turkey, it makes Turkey closer to the region and provides an opportunity to expand its area of influence to the Middle East. On the other hand, in this study, factors such as government ideologies, leader perspectives, geographical locations are overlooked and the issue has been tried to be scrutinised in order to be a unique scientific and theoretical approach
